Choose one of the cardio-intensive sports and do it at least three times a week. Such loads include those that make the heart beat faster. And this, in turn, leads to the burning of calories. This can be basketball or football, swimming, running or aerobics.

Give your muscles a load. To avoid flabbiness, loss of contours and maintain a beautiful body, you will have to strain your muscles at least twice a week. Work your abs, back, legs, and arms with simple bodyweight or dumbbell exercises. Active work will help your skin to remain elastic, and the relief of the body will be preserved for many years.

Eat as many calories as you plan to burn in your workout. If there are more of them, the weight will begin to increase, less - to decrease. All with the same trainer, calculate how many calories you burn in your lifestyle. From this, conclude what and how much you can eat during the day. The easiest way to reduce the calorie content of food is to give up sweets, flour and fatty foods.

Don't stretch your stomach. In other words, don't overeat. Such a simple rule will help you maintain your shape, because you will not expose the body to overload, forcing the stomach to work hard.
